Description:
  1. Standing place the lacrosse ball over within the medial longitudinal arch of your foot.
  2. Increase pressure by pushing more into the ground. Decrease pressure by doing the opposite or complete while seated.
  3. Gentle roll forward and back to locate key area(s).  At that point minimize rolling around too much and instead focus on applying direct pressure but not for too long!
  4. Do not over do any one area to the point of significant pain or discomfort.  Less is more.
